The Hyderabad-based Ankura Hospital for Women and Children, a leader in specialized healthcare for women and children, is poised for rapid expansion over the next 30 months. Dr Krishna Prasad Vunnam, founder and managing director of Ankura Hospital, announced the hospital's strategic growth plans aimed at improving healthcare accessibility and extending Ankura's reach to underserved communities across India.

“We are thrilled to announce the opening of our 15th world-class center in Bhubaneswar, marking our first step into Odisha. This is just the beginning of our mission to establish Ankura in many more locations across the country in the coming years. Our vision is to provide exceptional care to women and children no matter where they are, ensuring healthcare is accessible to all,” said Dr. Vunnam.
 
As part of its expansion strategy, Ankura Hospital has devised a comprehensive fundraising plan, focusing on avenues such as debt financing and private equity. This strategy will support the development of new healthcare facilities, the expansion of services, and the strengthening of infrastructure. "We are committed to financial sustainability in our growth. By leveraging these funding opportunities, Ankura will continue to provide cutting-edge healthcare services while maintaining operational efficiency," Dr Vunnam noted.

Dr Vunnam highlighted that, while India has made strides in women and child healthcare, there is still a significant gap compared to global standards. "Challenges such as high maternal and infant mortality rates, malnutrition, and disparities in healthcare delivery persist. Ankura is addressing these issues by expanding access to healthcare, promoting preventive care, and conducting patient education programs," he stated.

"Our goal is to not only meet but surpass global healthcare standards by continually enhancing our services, ensuring every woman and child receives the quality care they deserve," added Dr Vunnam.

With the growing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare, Ankura Hospital is also preparing to embrace this technological advancement. Dr. Vunnam believes AI will significantly transform women and child healthcare by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, personalizing treatments, and improving operational efficiency. "AI technologies can aid in early detection of high-risk pregnancies and paediatric conditions, as well as streamline administrative processes, enabling our medical teams to focus more on patient care," he said.

Ankura Hospital remains committed to responsibly integrating AI technologies into its practices, ensuring ethical considerations and patient safety remain top priorities.

Reflecting on his professional journey, Dr. Vunnam shared how his global experiences in pediatrics and neonatology, particularly his advanced training in Sydney, Australia, shaped his vision for Ankura Hospital. "I always envisioned a healthcare system where every child in India, regardless of background, has access to high-quality, compassionate care," he explained.

Driven by the gaps he witnessed in healthcare upon returning to India, Dr. Vunnam founded Ankura to deliver advanced maternal and pediatric care closer to home for families in need. "Healthcare advancements should reach every corner of the nation, and at Ankura, we are making sure that happens," he said.

“Ankura Hospital's blend of advanced technology, specialized care, and family-centered approach has distinguished it from other healthcare providers in the competitive landscape of women and child healthcare. With a strong commitment to excellence in both pediatric and gynecological services, and a future focused on expansion, Ankura Hospital is set to lead the way in transforming healthcare delivery across India,” he added.
